While I'm not clear on what exactly you're doing from your post, I have a sneaking suspicion that you've not mounted the device anywhere. What I believe you want to do is something akin to the following: # mkfs -t ext3 /dev/md0 # mount -t ext3 /mnt # service stop httpd # cp -a /var/www/html/* /mnt # rm -rf /var/www/html/* # umount /mnt # mount -t ext3 /dev/md0 /var/www/html # restorecon -R -v /var/www/html # service httpd start This creates an extended 3 filesystem on the new raid device, mounts it in a temporary location, copies your existing web content to it, removes the web content from the old location, and the replaces it with the new raid device. The restorecon is self-explanitory as are the service commands. If this isn't the issue, can you please give some more detail on the problem you're experiencing? -- Chris () ASCII Ribbon Campaign! /\ Say NO to HTML in Mail and News! -- fedora-selinux-list mailing list fedora-selinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-selinux-list
